Wow way ahead of us here. We have not even started corn silage yet. Hope your yields will be good. Nationwide they are predicting the 3rd largest crop ever. Here will be about 20-35% below normal trends. Even our earlier corn with decent stand counts is short. First silage near me is scheduled for the coming week. East of me we have a wide variety of late planted corn and many acres never planted.

Best corn we have ever picked here, by a good margin. Marginal stand too. We are in a pocket that got pretty timely rains, west of us not so much.

Some of the fields are close here, but I've not seen any corn harvested yet near me. The field across the street from me always gets put in late by a renter. It's probably got 3 weeks to go still. It's been dry, but the corn around here looks good anyways. Most beans look good, but I've seen a few fields, that were probably planted late, that didn't get rain when they needed it.

We've picked some upland fields that were over 160. Our bottom ground should be better.

Yes sir, do you farm my friend?

They've just started cutting corn around my place in VA. We don't have the big fields that you all have in the midwest like that. I'd bet the majority of what's farmed in my area is <15 acres per field. I've got 60 farmable acres that I lease out across 7 fields and I had 3 local farmers in-line looking to lease when I bought my place.

Hope y'all have a safe and productive harvest.

Some corn got planted here in April and no frost. We got over 13" of rain in May and it's really good corn.

just started around here combining - chopping silage mostly done - piles made - been shooting a few doves over field chopped a week ago. Fields chopped a couple of weeks ago were covered up in hundreds of doves but not near the early chopping this year with adequate rainfalls.

I saw the very first being chopped for silage here yesterday afternoon. They were finishing up the fields early this morning. Should have geese in fields this evening.

It was still quite green where they were chopping. It'll be a long time before see anything that brown and dry around here for them to shell. We've had quite a wet year. Guys are saying good crop but at horrible price considering the inputs.
